I came to Christ via rational inference, not a personal crisis.

Reading this evokes in me physical sensations of discomfort, although it shouldn't. As others have said, it's important to study the failures as well as the successes.

Just stopping by to chuckle at the phrase "evokes in me physical sensations of discomfort" from someone whose forum name is that of a worm that crawls in peoples ears and mind controls them in order to destroy the human race.

It was originally a pun on "Master Mind", only later I discovered that ridiculous, half-forgotten DC villain... It was nonetheless fitting :)

Anyway, how would you feel if you had to crawl inside the ear of a giant alien? ;)
